Living on one level makes life so much easier especially where household chores are concerned. As for children not having their own space, of course they would. They don’t have be upstairs to achieve that.
I was in my 20's and got sick and tired of going up and down constantly my next house was one level. I didn't even go down in the basement that often. My washer/dryer wasn't even in the basement.
In the schoolhouse if they need extra space, can they build up to accommodate their future kids? What about the existing space for when their aging parents visits?
Even with modern health care and extended life expectancies try to plan ahead as far as you can...
Three generations under one roof, if needed💞
Their loss, on that single - level . It was a really wonderful home with land
Yep, that was my favourite.
Both couples were very fortunate. Their two helpers worked very hard for them. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💖🩵♥️🥰🤗
The bungalow and the views were absolutely stunning. They could have added an addition in case their not yet existing children needed more space.
I loved the one level home!
So did I! I hate cleaning stairs. They are so much extra work.
I grew up in NZ so houses of 1 story (or bungalows as you call them) are very common. The thing I dislike about two or more stories is that you hear what others are doing above you... stomping around, the music they are playing. One story gives you so much more privacy. I find the attitude to this so weird. It was a spacious and light filled home. It was a winner as far as Im concerned.
I’m in the US and a large ranch-style home is my preference. The single level home was fabulous and well under budget. The reasoning of this couple is beyond my comprehension.
Totally agree wuth everything you said. Why have stairs if one could afford a space like that one level home. I mean just why? It was gorgeous.
That luxury bungalow was so fantastic, wow!😍 I think bungalows are so underrated...
The couple who wanted a flat and ended up with their own house... wonderful! That was a great decision!👏
I hope they are all very happy!
The bungalow was great! And your own front door and back yard beats any apartment living. The couple were lucky to have Kirstie guide them in the right direction. Living with little children in high rise apartments seem so unappealing.
That couple's reaction to the house versus a leasehold flat was insane. Leasehold is what people buy because they have no other choice - it is a scam. They owe Kirsty everything for talking them into buying a house over a flat - and now the house is probably worth double what they paid for it without doing anything at all.
It would definitely be nice to see how these 2 young couples are doing now in 2023!
🍀I just looove Kristie and Pihls combined energies and their ‘location’ videos, actually the only entertainment I bother see.😊💕🍀
While I loved the one story (American here) I so enjoyed Matt wanting his dream and proud to have achieved it. While still seeming to be a pleasant nice guy
Pleasant? I found him rather annoying!
Are you serious?...he was a whinging , complaining gobshite... typical little man bossy syndrome...turning up his nose at amazing houses while people sleep under bridges... prat..
Really thought the bungalow was lovely.
If I had 1.2 million, I'd buy that one level in a New York minute! That house is utterly fabulous.
Why do people assume that it is better for kids to grow up in the countryside? I think the suburbs are stultifying, but the city is such a stimulating place, an open classroom. There are green spaces, friends to make, concerts to attend, museums to see, and all walks of life to experience. I'd never trade those for kicking a ball around a flat lawn.
That's completely true! I think it was because that little man was brought up in a council estate, and so he wanted a little slice of what he thought how the wealthy lived. He'll probably regret it when confronted with countryside living issues.
There's pros and cons to any area. Privacy, safer, quieter and large garden in country. Culture and convenient nearby shopping and services in city. You can make friends in both, especially with children. I hope they don't find locals look down on them as 'incomers'. From the size and price of that development I would guess they all are in the same boat, so hopefully they find congenial friends.
One level living is so much easier
Unless you’re disabled in some way what’s the issue with stairs ?😂
Yeah, and I laughed when that 1.5mil couple said that there'd be no room for the kids in that bungalow! 😆
@7ofthem I do have a disability and a senior citizen. Even for just middle agers, think ahead to the future unless you want to move again
@@CaponeCabin erm… I said unless you have a disability, obviously yours is reading
@@7ofthem Were your four last words really necessary?
Love a bungalow and that one was stunning. Yes, in the UK bungalows used to be built on 'estates' for older tenants/owners and that's why they have that 'old person' rep. Having lived in other countries though, I lived in a few single story places, some with basements, and grew to appreciate them.
they dont look good
@@vertigo2894 To you perhaps. Other people have different tastes.
@@philipmcfarlane Bad taste yes
@@vertigo2894 In your opinion which is is only really relevant to you.
@philipmcfarlane Nope, some things really are not ae cool as others. Some people like painting tveir homes electric blue. It's nad taste.
In France where I live, when you are the first to make an asking price offer, you get it.
Love the Wadhurst house, spectacular views too. They could build a 2nd story for a playroom. I personally love 1 level.
The bubble bath couple made the right choice and got SUCH a good deal. They've definitely built excellent equity in the years since. So happy for them, nothing beats a good bath under a skylight!
Bubble bath clients...🤣🤣🤣
Whoa! I LOVE the converted renovated old schoolhouse...1/3 acre is a lot of outdoor space to take care of...children once they get a little older don't want to hang with mom and dad...there is lots of space for the kids to disappear and do their own thing.
Well done Kirsty, you really helped the young couple with a 180° transformation.
iwould say360degrees! quite impressive- great couple!
I so enjoy watching these...today I found myself smiling at my laptop...many many thanks
I don't understand why so many people have issues with living on one level...no stairs to contend with, which is a great idea when there are young children or aged parents... and just think about this...on laundry day, no hauling dirty laundry downstairs or carrying clean laundry upstairs
Bungalows are very sought after here in Canada. It makes everything so much easier. The British should get over this “old people “thing.
I’m a Brit loving in the US for 47 years. Lived in my single stores house for 35 years. A true blessing after several fractures of knee and femur and feet. Never could have managed stairs.
I agree! I'm a 60 year old Canadian, and we moved into our bungalow 2 years ago. I love single floor living.
Brits have an illogical aversion to bungalows….and vanities in bathrooms. A bathroom could be 12’ by 12’ and there’d still only be a pedestal sink.
Bungalows are for retirment, sleep upstairs live downstairs. All one one floor is messy and lazy.
Love my sprawling bungalow!
Kirsty and Phil, I love your programmes for so many reasons, peeping into interesting and beautiful locations, and in some way peoples lives, definitely the delightful whit and cheek between you both, and the marvellous way you dot stunning photography right the way through. For my best 'go to' enjoyment and entertainment I thank you for Location location location. 💕
Lucy
Love, love, LOVE this show!
I’m looking forward to the re-visit on these two pairs!
Oh yes! That´s was I just thought!
As of right now, neither of these couples had revisits.
❤So great to see Phil and Kirstie at work doing the negotiations!
I cannot understand why British people don't like single-storey houses. They make life so much easier. No traipsing up and down stairs with laundry, baggage or parcels, and so easy to get outside.
That one level house is so good with kids in it. You never hear the kids running up and down stair, no overhead noise. This couple isn't very analytical. How did he get all tht money with his poor thinking.
At 34.28 It shows the fridge in the kitchen of that amazing mansion. I'm sure my eyes aren't deceiving me... it's a picture of Phil and Kirsty!
Ha ha!! Definitely yes, when you zoom in I think Kirsty has her tongue out!!
Me encanta Phil, siempre educado y mostrando casas espectaculares, es un profesional 😊
So happy for both couples!
It’s funny how people think a double story home signifies wealth. It’s more expensive to live on one level because your building cost goes up you’re laying more foundation. It’s cheaper to build up. 21:00
Single story houses- bungalows- are not usually available because land is at a premium in Europe and the UK. People are just not used to them.
Most Indian families live on one level. It's practical too as once you grow old, the stairs might be a hazard
So one house wasn't good enough because they had to drive through a "development". But the last house was perfect, even though they still had to drive through a "development". The difference between the two? About one million pounds/property. They were quite snobby. Nice, but snobby. Thanks for the upload!
You’re kidding, right? There were more houses and more built up and the curb appeal and setting wasn’t as great.
Wow, gorgeous properties! I'm willing to take any of those houses
🎉 Let's hope the large house buyers can afford a cleaner o/w the whole time will be spent cleaning and gardening
At 1.5 million I expect they can 😂
Brits have a very strange, cultural, aversion to single-level homes. Most would take a multi-level terrace house, with shared walls and neighbors bumping around next door, over a lovely single-level home. It's so odd.
Super episode,thank you.
How difficult are couples nowadays when it comes to buying a house or that everything on your list is already there and everything has to be perfect, one thing that is not possible
We bought an apartment, but at the time there were still 2 of us and everything had to be done
After 3 years I fled the noise and the small space
to a house in a village and later children came and we have still lived there for almost 40 years > there is nothing like a house with a garden
and maintenance, yes, you get that as a gift with your own home, but then you are the boss of your own home
Kent is so beautiful, close to London and next to Europe.
Loved this episode....both lovely couples and was a real reminder that folk with money to spend on a large house can be so nice and grounded too.....I wish both sets health wealth and buckets of happiness❤
Thanks for sharing Good job God bless
such a beutafull home congrats long healty live great job phil curstie GB
I loved the first house that Matt and his wife looked at. Also the two tenants is a plus. They can make Windows bigger!
Sweet Ryan. You did what I could have done at your age. The difference between you and me is, that you will succeed. I have no doubt about that, you have the right mind for this, and I am so curious about the outcome. Much love and hugs, from Sweden.❤
Good luck to both couples
The old schoolhouse was spectacular...this couple made the wrong decision.
Thank you so much for posting!! (I can't figure out why I was getting an ad every 2 mins. It was as if this was broken. ???)
Bungalows are sheer luxury in vertical, overpopulated cities. The fact that Britain has a fare share of arthritic patients after they have earned retirement, a one level house makes practical sense. A stairway to the other side is the only staircase that one cannot avoid, imo😅
Just saw it in completion.
Are those two couples now young families in 2023, in their ‘Kirstie- Phil found properties’ of 2015 ?
We don’t know. They haven’t done updates on either couple.
No one wants to just " put up with it " Kirsty .. put some ❤ into it
(21: 23) The reasons for which this house is so stunning... HUGE widows with stunning views of immaculate (but not sterile!) gardens with a vista beyond, AND because it was PERFECTLY decorated: REAL Art on the walls (COLLECTED over time, NOT bought in one place)... and either a professional designer (who knows how to 'get out of the way' when doing a job and is REALLY, REALLY good), OR ... the people living in the house know how to put colours together, have fabulous taste/KNOW HOW TO design a room that is impressive without being ostentatious, a room that draws you in and says "relax!" ... a room one can sit in without having to be DOING SOMETHING. THAT is quite a feat. AND... the LIGHTING is really really good.
But this is a house for established wealth, not new wealth. And these two want a house that impresses other people.
Good video 💐
We have lived in several 2 level homes. One level is more practical for living. Children do well in a one level, we were in one with three children.
She looks so similar to Geri Halliwell! Wow.
Trisha looks like Lesley Ann Warren when she was young!!!!!!
House sharing is a nightmare, been there, done that. I'm super tidy, housemates were slobs lol
@17:29 I agree...
Washing machine in the living room is a no go. It should be placed in the bathroom.
The wife of the second couple has fabulous skin❤❤❤
2:43 "equity from their 2 properties along with a substantial mortgage"....I wonder how this is working out for them now. (Looks like this episode is quite old).
I would say quite well. House is probably worth well over 2 million now.
I was thinking the same, series was 10 years ago and who knows if they can remortgage affordably, prices have dropped recently in the area, especially larger, older homes with high energy costs
............the couple with the 1.5 million budget drove me nuts, it's like NOTHING would suit them, but when Phil found them a home with a beautiful view and away from traffic they reject it because it was 'too clinical'?? Are you serious, I'd like to smack them both. The first home was gorgeous but I could see how they rejected it because it had 2 attached apartments so I'll give them that one........ but the one story bungalow was stunning and he says it's 'too clinical'?? Then there was the third house, another 'stunner' but they didn't like the area..............ugh, I couldn't stay neutral if I was the agent, I'd want to tell them that they were on their own, 'cause I'd be outta there. :)
If somebody spends this large sum of money THEY surely are entitled to choose what THEY really like/love!
Therefore, it doesn´t matter at all what YOU like or whould have done. 😡
.........well, didn't you just tell me off?! Nevertheless, the last time I looked this space was reserved for COMMENTS, so I'm entitled to put my two cents in if you like it or not. But, the fact that you seemed miffed that at my comments made my day. So, sit on that one!!
@@deltaman3921 " I'd like to smack them both" you seriously call that a "comment" your are entitled to make? End of conversation!
I really do believe they are stuck in their money making “glamping” scheme. As soon as I remembered they wanted to also make money of the home it all made sense
00:25 - that fridge is beyond repair I fear.
Christie that first condo was bad, no room for chair on balcony, etc….
'They don't have their own space..?!" .what on earth is she talking about? There are four huge bedrooms... sigh...I truly cannot understand why anyone would not think this huge one level home is not big enough. I was lovely. I couldn't do their job as some people would simply just annoy me. Also the other couple wanting a flat over a house ...in the beginning anyway were just insane. I mean why would they? Just why. An entire house is far better than a flat complete with maintenance fees...that go up and up and indeed up!! Just sigh...Honestly some people really have no vision or common sense. He liked the bathroom...sigh...oh my!! So glad to see they came to their senses or rather he did!!
Could never be a realtor. 😮
anyone know how old these episodes are? thanks in advance
This particular episode is from 2014, I believe.
200k in Maidstone, how old are these episodes 😂
2014
God, the 1.5m couple are really quite annoying.
Pure smug couple. There’s no forever home with married couples
@@qw1205Well I'm not sure why they are putting every penny into a "forever" house before they are married, have kids, and decide whether they like country living. All kinds of things can happen in a life and I really think they should have had an intermediate stage and then sold and moved again. But, each one to her and his own...
At the 34:28 mark is that Kirsty and Phil on the fridge? 😂
Why do children need an extra story above the parents? I mean, if the square footage is right, does it matter if it’s stacked above or next to each other? Bungalow is always better. You don’t loose space on stairs. But if I had the money… I’d have my fav.
Buying outside Plaxtol = having to take the car to go anywhere....
Matt couldn't stop a pig in a passage.
Why let someone else choose?
Trisha looks so much like Lindsey Lohan!!
The Neveau Riche are the hardest clients because they think they deserve everything and will always find problems. "Oh, it's a BUUUUNGALOOOOW! Boo Hoo!" "Oh, it's too close to the road (which is 500 yards away)." They will always find faults and in the end, they may not accept anything here. But they'll use Phil's knowledge and advice and find something by themselves. They use Phil and Kirsty to suck them dry, then find something of their own. But we haven't seen the third property yet. Hope springs eternal.
They did find a house they liked with Phil and they did buy it lol.
and they did compromise. It was over budget and it needed work.
You cannot be old money because you don’t even know how to spell nouveau rich(e), petal.
@@jcmunich1My thought exactly 😂
Steve from line of duty ??
😂😂😂
I think, in the house are 2 flats that are rented long term and they are owned by other people.
Come and look at our house ❤
I had to turn it off. None of these people seem to have any kind of flexible imagination. Tiresome. Also, the pair with tons of money should have brought their own designer along (in spite of Kirstie's vast design experience) to help them see the potential.
But the house they bought needed work though: it was definitely not move in ready
@@thehungrygoldfish I had to go back and see what happened! LOL. They each had a happy ending.
"in the countryside" better shoes are recommended. ..
poor girl!
The couple that lost their dream flat don't want the same things in a property. How are they even a couple??
Exactly
Since when is it not OK for a couple to not agree on what they want? lol
😊l what it all the time
Can those two please just start a relationship thank you
Who needs so much room...all status to show off wealth to friends .....
They’re planning it to be a long term family home so that’s why.
Tiny round sink in a kitchen? Weird. The other couple--you want kids? So you want to haul kids and laundry up and down 2 or 3 stairways for years? Or is that for the au pair to do? They've earned it--I like that, but good grief.
The big Victorian pile was by far my favourite, but I didn't understand the business with "tenants" or something. Two people already live in the house until they die or individually decide to move out?!? Is that some odd British thing, or did I misunderstand?
No - there were two flats attached to their house. One was owned by them, but one by an elderly man. So they wouldn't have been detached
I can't get my head around what constitutes a garden in England. To me an outdoor courtyard that is fully decked or completley covered in pebbles/stones or concrete is not a garden. A garden has plants and lawn and trees 😉
Keep in mind that the UK is significantly smaller than the US. The space you get is just not going to be comparable to the US.
Not everyone in the UK would call that a garden. But there's nothing to stop them ripping out the decking and putting in a proper garden when they have the budget for it.
It's not what they want...why try to force the issue?
Clearly millions of pounds to spend on a house doesn't remove The Small Man Syndrome this guy has in spades.
Kirstie is quite a bully.
Dear GOD, but there are ads every 2 minutes, or MORE!!!! TOO MANY ADS!!!!!!!!
That is annoying, although I had only 3 ad breaks. Perhaps it’s more to do with the algorithm than the particular program? I don’t know 😢
@@barbaraoshea8639 Oh! Wow! Thank you so much for letting me know! That is kind of you to do so. I appreciate it. Yes, it must be the algorithm (I have no idea how that works!). Thank you!
free ad blocks,
How old is this programme. 1.2 mil won't get you much now.
This episode is from 2014, I believe.
I think the lady realtor is too testy...this couple is looking for their dream home and not the home the realtor thinks they should buy...this is their first and forever home and the wife has every right to take her time...
Picky ! 😢
The one couple with the smaller budget are shown a great property and pick it apart The woman needs to be treated for depression. No doubt why she’s a shoe hoarder
The two flats shown had absolutely no character whatsoever and were horribly 'flash' decorated (someone's idea of 'Modern' ... except that, it just looked cheap, like a bad advertisement).
Why is it when a black woman has preferences, its a whole problem with the agent. Why should she be expected to settle for something she doesn't like.😮
Property porn...
